That looks great!

Thank you for holding the contest, Chris! And congrats to all the winners!

I love all my WSMs, but I think I'm a little behind the times; what is a WSK?

I'm big into triathlons. It doesn't quite mesh with smoking, given the caloric intake from BBQ, but I do love doing triathlons. I'm doing 70.3 Des Moines race on Father's Day and am really looking forward to it.

I didn't know that setting existed; thanks for mentioning it, Chris! I've now got it set on my iPhone as well.

Thanks for the replies everyone! I totally agree about the build quality, Jim; if the build quality were better I would no doubt be getting one of these, but that is worrisome to me. An ATC is an option for me to look into (like I said, late August is my time-frame for buying so I have...

I love the WSM and have all three sizes but recently I've been contemplating the Masterbuilt Gravity series simply for the ease of control (if you don't know, it has a controller like a pellet grill but runs off either lump or briquettes). It seems almost like the best of both worlds to me...

Congrats to all the winners! And thanks to Chris for doing all this for all of us!

I'm going to be getting it as soon as I can. As others have said, there are others who need it before me (health care workers, etc.) but as soon as I'm able I'll be getting it.

I've usually done low and slow but the last brisket I did was hot and fast around 300*. I will admit that I have limited experience with the hot and fast method but so far I prefer it (more hot and fast cooks to come to test it). I've found that with low and slow I tend to overcook the flat...

When late/in a hurry, you'll get stuck behind someone doing 10 under the speed limit.

Another Fruita fan here. I've always had good quality products from them.

She's a very cute dog!

That's a great deal! I paid $275 for my used 22 and it had no mods, but the seller threw in a bunch of wood and two chimneys.

I enjoyed the first half of Thursdays Chiefs game but had to get to bed at halftime to get up for work on Friday. I'm usually never excited for football (I'm a baseball guy) but after the Chiefs went all the way last year and with baseball being such a shortened season I am kind of a little more...

I have one of each size. I started with the new version of the 18" with the dome thermometer (2008 I think? not sure, got it the January after it came out) and about five years later I got a 14 for Christmas. Last year I finally picked up a used 22 from facebook marketplace for a great price...

I've got a whole shelf of WWII books, most of them dealing with the naval war in the Pacific. In terms of books about specific battles, I enjoyed Hornfischer's "The Last Stand of the Tin Can Sailors" enough to read it twice. It's about the Battle off Samar and is a good telling of a battle the...

I've never been brave enough to try the hot squat method, and I don't even use a water pan anymore (eventually went to a clay saucer, and now use a firedial in my 18.5 and plan on getting one for my 14.5; not sure about the 22.5 yet, but I've only got 1 cook on it so far so I'm still testing it...

Thank you for posting about this, Chris! I'm updating my iOS to take advantage of this feature. I keep getting a lot of crap calls. The worst were a few weeks ago when I was in Asia, 12 hours ahead of home. Nothing like getting a phone call in the middle of my night that wakes me up when I'm...

I recently (Memorial Day) invited my parents over because "I was grilling some hamburgers." Does that count as inviting someone over for grilling? On the 4th, I've invited them over because I'm smoking a brisket. I tend to not use the term "BBQ" outside of referring to the food itself. For...
